Our brain injury attorneys get victims money for brain injuries. Mishaps are things like accidents. But these are accidents that would only happen if someone was negligent. For example, did you suffer a head injury? Was it from a car accident? Or maybe an infection such as meningitis befell you?

Maybe a disease outbreak took place at your local hospital. Maybe it was a compounding pharmacy that ignored hygiene. Or was it a physical ailment from chemical exposure?

For example, strokes from exposure to workplace chemicals come to mind. Perhaps that resulted in permanent brain damage? A TBI or MTBI caused by the fault of someone's negligence. But how do we determine fault?

These are the questions tort lawyers seek to answer. In fact, some victims can develop cancers and tumors. Any harm to the brain remains bad.

How Does Brain Damage Effect Bodily Functions?

Vulnerable organ damage can mean disability. Things taken for granted now prove impossible. Even a non-traumatic brain injury can cause lifetime problems. In other words, harm may come to your balance, breathing, and restful sleep. Functions like typing, smelling, seeing, and hearing could all be thrown off kilter.

Even being able to taste may no longer be possible. You may not even be able to control when you pee. That could mean using bladder bag or adult diapers for life. Besides being inconvenient, the medical costs soar.

Usually, brain injured victims remain unable to work. So likely the victim will have tremendous stress from a pile of unpaid bills. Damaged biological and physiological processes can wreak havoc.

Families routinely suffer under the weight of brain injuries. For example, behavior and function problems could harm cordial relations.

Silva v. LAMTA. $850,000. A disabled man was struck in the head by an LAMTCA train's rear view mirror. He had been standing on the train platform. He passed away. A dispute in liability existed, yet Ehline pulled it off.

It was a mild to moderate traumatic brain injury case. Defendants had no real assets and little coverage. Post-concussive syndrome was also at issue. Ehline was able to exhaust the policy limits. This was a contentious case. (Other Results).

Head Trauma Causes Serious Brain Injuries and Death.

Without going into detail, impact and trauma to your skull and neck can be severe. Clinically described conditions may befall victims. You could suffer a subdermal hematoma, concussion, swelling and water on the brain. Also, some victims face hemorrhage and intracranial pressure. This may be coupled with swelling. This could become global hypoxia, anoxic or hypoxic brain injury. (See below).

But there are also many other types of problems such as loss of mental ability. And these can interfere with a patient's faculty of reason. Also, things like feelings, thoughts and analysis factors become upset. Afterward, the injury-producing event could lead to a coma.

For this reason, a persistent vegetative state could lead survivors to the courthouse steps. In fact, it may give rise to a wrongful death lawsuit.

Brain Injury Medical Care Facts.

Acute brain injury could remain life long. The traumatology may include PTSD and other complications. So it may require at home nursing care, gadgets and devices to assist the person in his medical treatment. As a result, it may require life-long medication.

Most of all, our Los Angeles and Orange County brain injury attorneys have vast legal experience in brain injury lawsuits. First and foremost, our lawyers specialize in helping the victim manage his or her care. Therefore, we take steps to help mitigate injuries and maximize the total compensatory award of special and general damages.

Importance of Day in the Life Journals.

A victim should keep a day in the life journal, or “diary.” And they should be documenting their day to day struggles with memory loss, pain, etc. Also, vigorous case management like this maximizes potential economic recovery.

So for it to be proper, it needs to look at the given circumstances of each instance. Last, our job is to present your case to the insurance adjuster, or judge, in a light most favorable to you.

Getting Monetary Compensation For a Brain Injury Victim.

Identifying Potential Defendants.

We're looking out for everyone who was negligent and liable. Anyone involved is a potential defendant. So they could all be on the hook for your brain damages and other injuries.

So whether they acted with malicious intent remains irrelevant. And even if it was a poorly made or designed defective product we can help seek money from the manufacturer.

Also, the defendant may have made existing injuries worse. For example, say a nurse or caregiver prescribes an unfortunate course of care or treatment. It could be that a defendant is liable for subsequent medical malpractice.

And other persons could be insured too. What Ehline does is find every policy at risk. We don't stop until we have searched high and low.

Rainmakers Make Better Lawyers.

If someone has insurance, there is possibly money somewhere to cover. But you must have a great attorney. First of all, insurance companies fight to pay you as little as possible. But a motivated lawyer seeks to obtain the maximum compensation on your behalf. Having the right advocate who is a “rainmaker,” means maximizing the final sum.

Also, because the science involved in serious brain injuries is constantly evolving, you need to retain lawyers who have extensive experience in this field of law and science. Also, these cases will typically require psychological testing. And this must be done by the best medical experts in the field. So if need be, we exhaust your personal injury protection (PIP) coverage. Afterward, we can go to trial.

Also, if we do so, the defendants’ personal assets become exposed. In rare cases, we can seek an assignment of an insurance bad faith claim. And these remain only a few ways we maximize your payout even further.
